Question 1: How do I care for my tapestry?
Answer: Tapestries made of natural sisal and wool are susceptible to moisture if kept in damp or high humidity areas. An occasional dusting with a light suction vacuum will normally suffice. Application of any type of spray or cleaner must not include any chemical that will cause color fading or deterioration. There are mild liquids that can be applied to organic materials that repel staining or odors that do not harm the fabrics. Some of Nina's tapestries have been on display in customer's homes for more than 30 years.
Question 2: Can I order a different
size tapestry than shown on the website?
Answer: A different size tapestry, painting or mixed Media Artwork can be
ordered with a corresponding adjustment made to the price.
Question 3: How much time would it take to produce a tapestry? A portrait? A mixedmedia?
Answer: Normally, it takes approximately one month after the composition has been finalized and an agreement has been formulated. The size and complexity of a composition will have a direct effect on the total time of creation.
Question 4: How are tapestries displayed or mounted to a wall?
Answer: Various methods can be utilized. A round dowel or pipe can be cut to have the tapestry woven on to, or hooks may be placed in the edge of the tapestry to suspend from a wall mounted fixture. Very large pieces may need to have a stand constructed. The artist does not assume any liability for any resulting damage or injury from improper mounting of any composition or artwork.
